“This was a fun experience. The tour was well thought out but I had completed a walking tour the day before so there was more overlap of information than I anticipated. The tour guide did their best to keep everyone safe but the roads in Dublin are a bit unpredictable. One of the brakes on my brothers bike unfortunately wasn't working but he managed around it. I would recommend this tour only for those comfortable on a bike on busy roads.”
